Gonzalez Goes for Monster Stack
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
The action was picked up on a turn of 3?7?A?2?, with 60,000 chips in the pot. Malik Mayeux made a bet of 28,000 from the big blind and was called by Juan Gonzalez under the gun.
Mayeux sized up to 48,000 on the K? river, after which Gonzalez shoved all in for 144,000. Mayeux did not have to think long before making the call and revealed K?7? for two pair.
Gonzalez also had two pair with A?K? and his two pair was superior and he was thus awarded the pot worth over 80 big blinds. Mayeux, meanwhile, was left with only five big blinds.
